Meet New Walden Principal: Michelle Jackson

Michelle Jackson will become Walden’s principal starting on July 1, 2018. This appointment is pending approval at a special Board of Education (BOE) meeting on May 15.

Michelle comes to Walden from Oak Grove School District 68 in Green Oaks, where she has been the school’s assistant principal since 2015. In that role, she also serves as the district’s talented and gifted coordinator. Prior to her administrative position, she was an elementary teacher in Round Lake and Barrington.

Michelle was introduced to Walden staff members on May 4; there will be meet-and-greet opportunities for parents in the coming weeks.
